Abstract: The invention provides a refrigerant composition for use as a direct replacement for the environmentally unacceptable refrigerant R12 (dichlorodifluoromethane) in refrigeration apparatus. The composition comprises a mixture of R134a (tetrafluoroethane), a hydrocarbon which is propane, propylene or isobutane in a non-flammable amount, and optionally R218 (octafluoropropane). The hydrocarbon is usually present in an amount of 2 to 10% by weight, and the R218 is usually present as 3 to 20% by weight. An extreme pressure anti-wear additive, such as a triaryl phosphate, may also be included. The composition contains no chlorine and has no ozone-depleting potential.

Abstract: A device (11) includes a sync unit (20) to identify and achieve synchronization with the cell boundaries of a 53-byte ATM cell stream. Each cell starts with a 5-byte header in which the 5th byte is a CRC byte. Instead of testing all possible bytes to see whether they are cell boundaries, a CRC circuit (21) computes CRCs for successive 5-byte blocks, under the control of a 5-state header counter (22). If such a block is a header, its CRC is a predetermined value, and a match signal is sent to a logic circuit (23), which starts a 53-state cell counter (24) and stops the header counter (22). A 4-state repeat counter (25) checks that the next 5 blocks checked by the CRC circuit (21) are also headers, as confirmation. Synchronization is achieved within at most 5 cells, because the test period of the testing circuitry (which could be longer than the header length) is coprime with the cell length.

Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à un procédé qui permet d'assurer qu'un stock de cubes de glace (3) placés dans de l'eau de mer (4) restent détachés les uns des autres et ne s'agglomèrent pas, ce qu'on obtient en soumettant le stock (3, 4) à l'application physique d'une force de mélange, laquelle crée un puissant mouvement dans le stock constitué par les cubes de glace et l'eau de mer. On obtient cette force de mélange en injectant de l'air dans le stock (3, 4), ce qui crée des bulles d'air produisant le mouvement de mélange. Un agencement de réalisation de ce procédé est décrit. On peut réaliser le procédé mentionné ci-dessus en modifiant un agencement connu en soi pour le transport de poissons à partir d'un stock de cubes de glace où ils sont conservés. A cet effet, on procède aux étapes suivantes: on injecte de l'air dans le stock, on décharge un mélange de cubes de glace et d'eau dans un réservoir de stockage intermédiaire, puis on transporte le mélange vers une zone de traitement en soumettant le réservoir de stockage intermédiaire à une surpression.

Abstract: The severed end of a continuous, traveling web (11), such as paper, being wound into a wound web roll (12) is attached to the web roll, without requiring human touch, by a pair of adhesive applicators (23, 24) which are mounted on guides (19, 29) to travel longitudinally parallel with the axis of the roll being wound. The applicators may apply either a stripe of glue (21, 22) or an adhesive tape to the circumference of the wound paper roll during the last revolution of the wound web roll, preferably at two locations intermediate the end arm supports (13, 14) of the wound web roll. The applicators are moved radially inwardly to a working position and outwardly to a stand-by position relative to the axis of the rotation of the wound web roll so as to be retracted in the stand-by position when the last wrap of the web on the roll is made to attach the severed end of the web onto the finished wound web roll.

Abstract: The invention provides novel peptide derivatives which are designed to deliver pharmacologically active peptides into the central nervous system by sequential metabolism. The peptide is placed in a molecular environment which disguises its peptide nature and provides biolabile, lipophilic functions to penetrate the blood-brain barrier by passive transport. The design incorporates a dihydropyridine-type redox targetor moiety, an amino acid or di- or -tripeptide spacer inserted between the targetor and N-terminal amino acid unit of the peptide and a bulky, lipophilic substituent protecting the C-terminal amino acid unit of the peptide. The dihydropyridine-type targetor undergoes an enzymatically mediated oxidation to a hydrophilic, membrane-impermeable pyridinium salt. That polar targetor-peptide conjugate is trapped behind the lipoidal blood-brain barrier. Over time, cleavage of the lipophilic ester from the peptide by esterase and or lipase enzymes and enzymatic cleavage of the targetor-spacer from the peptide results in release of the desired peptide in the brain.

Abstract: The control of the burning process in glass tank furnaces with alternating supply of fossil fuels and combustion air on both sides of the tank usually takes place by detecting the actual temperature values in the furnace space and controlling the thermal power depending on these temperature values by means of an air-quantity control (RML) and a fuel-quantity control (RMB) and also by means of corresponding actuators (SL1 and SB) in the air line (20) and in the fuel line (12). In this connection, the ratio of fuel quantity to combustion air quantity is observed. In order to reduce great temperature variations and peak NOx values in the waste gases by switching over the burners for the purpose of reversing the flame direction, the measured temperature values are stored over a series of 1 to n cycles in a first operating phase. From this, a mean temperature value is formed and, in a further operating phase, primarily either the combustion air quantity or the fuel quantity is at least temporarily held at a constant value depending on the mean temperature value formed, and either the fuel-quantity control (RMB) or the air-quantity control (RML) is controlled dependently during this time. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An improved internal line up clamp (10) is disclosed which has an integral back up ring (12). A first set of pipe clamps (22) move radially outward to engage the inner surface of a first pipe (14). A second set of pipe clamps (62) and a set of back up ring segments (202) are simultaneously moved radially outward into engagement with the inner surface of the pipes. The back up ring segments (202) are spring loaded to exert a relatively constant back up force against the inner surface of the pipes at the weld. In a modification, a fill block (118) can be used to fill the gap between adjacent back up ring segments when engaging the inner surface of the pipe. The back up ring segments support the shoe elements (220). The shoe elements are spring loaded to accommodate diameter mismatch and non-circularity of the pipe ends. The back up ring segments rotate about a radial axis from the pipe centerline. Tapered ends on the back up ring segments provide for the decrease in ring circumference necessary to lower the ring segments. <IMAGE>
